"The face of the operation is Briatore (referred to exclusively in the film by his colleagues and angry, chanting detractors as "Flavio"), an anthropomorphic radish who spends most of his time at QPR plotting to fire all of the managers."

At press time, Harbaugh had sent Michigan’s athletic department an envelope containing a heavily annotated seating chart, a list of the 63,000 seat views he had found unsatisfactory, and a glowing 70-page report on section 25, row 12, seat 9, which he claimed is “exactly what the great sport of football is all about.”

OT: Gruden @ HS spring practice on SC

Just wanted to give a heads up about a little series on the morning Sportscenters. Jon Gruden helped out a high school team for their 3 week spring practice. Parts 1 and 2 were today with him at practice giving pointers to the kids, then in the film room with the coaches.

In all honesty though I did hear at one point his one of his dream jobs would be to coach Michigan. Of course, another dream job I heard he had was to coach Notre Dame. If we wanted to get back to the Bo way of doing things, well, how would Bo feel about that? To hell with Notre Dame!

Gruden has said that he's really comfortable with the booth. He gets paid good money, only puts in 1/100th of the work that he would have to if he was coaching again, and gets to spend more time with the family. Pretty sweetheart situation for him actually.

I got a 23 and didn't get in. Of course I'm a 5'8 white guy that can't catch herpes at a titty bar. - Toledowolverine

Referring to his son as a "sawed-off Tim Tebow" after a nice run was pretty funny.

If Gruden ever goes back to coaching, I hope it's in college. Gurden is ingratiating at first, but his act wears thin after four or five years. In college, you only have a kid for four or five years. This sounds like the proverbial "match made in heaven."

Wonder how one would price his services for doing this with High School staffs? It would seem that there would be a market to have Gruden to come in as a consultant, and there are a lot of high schools that have the booster support to do so. Might be kind of cool to have a hobby that could pay big bucks.

is the man and was a phenomenal hire by ESPN...he is probably helping out the OL at his son's high school because as far as I know, his son is the quarterback and he probably doesn't want him getting hurt.
